Came across your site because I am very upset at the lies Glenn Beck has been broadcasting. Since the election he has been blaming congressman Fred Upton for the banning of the incandescent light bulb. that was passed under the Energy Independence and security Act of 2007 , that George Bush signed. The Fact is Fred Upton a republican congressman Never voted for and Never co-sponsored that bill H.R. 6.If you look up The Energy Independence and Security Act 2007 H.R. 6 in the Library Of Congress which was the final bill of phasing out the incandescent light bulb it proves that Fred Upton Never voted for that bill of banning the incandescent light bulbs. Glenn Becks paid sponsor
is Freedom Works which is smearing Fred Upton with their Down With Upton.com. Even Politico is smearing Fred Upton.on this issue. Almost every day Glenn Beck broadcast to millions of his listeners to sign the petition against Fred Upton accusing him of Banning the incandescent light bulb, in which Fred Upton Never voted for this final bill of H.R. 6 because he was against the Final bill H.R. 6. You will find a list of the cosponsors and Fred Upton is Not one of them There are 200 pages to this bill but from page 64 to 70 it states how the incandescent light bulb and lamps to be phased out. I have informed Glenn Beck staff of the real truth and yet they ignore the truth and Beck still keeps repeating the lie on Fred Upton just about everyday. For with their thousands of peitions to see that Fred Upton does Not become head of the Energy commission.If you look up the same bill H.R. 6 in the Senate on Energy Independence Act 2007 which is the same bill in which Obama co-sponsor and who really voted for banning the incandescent light bulb, yet nothing is mentioned by Beck on who really cosponsored it. I believe Glenn Beck is duped by Freedom works, and Politico. He is too lazy to look up the Bill number to see the truth that Fred Upton Did Not vote on the banning of the light bulbs instead he believes whatever Freedom Works and Politico says. He is trying to destroy the republicans in congress when he states and Freedom Works states they are going to Weed out Republicans. Glenn Beck thinks he’s so popular that he can start a third party and all that will do is guarantee the democrats take over of congress in 2012. He doesn’t give republicans any credit for what they are trying to do to stop the democrats and Obama agenda. I agree with you on Glenn Beck Not supporting our troops, and all you have stated. Glenn Beck doesn’t know his history either. He thinks everything is Woodrow Wilson fault, yet big government didn’t take hold with government big spending programs until Lyndon Johnson who did the most damaged.with the Great society that turned out to be not so great.

Americans need to wake up the fact that Beck is simply another opinion pushing charlatan who is a product of mormon cult theology that he mixes with parts of Catholicism and his personal core as a dry alcoholic. And for the record, he is a Mormon and not a Christian. The religion of Islam has more in common with Christianity than the mormon cult. As someone with a graduate degree in religion, I can say with all qualifications that Mormonism fits all parameters of a cult and has none of the parameters of a religion. A cult is any group (regardless of its size) that interprets the doctrines of a religion in an unorthodox fashion. Cults have come out of all major world religions and Christianity is no exception. The problem here is the fact the most Christians do not understand the difference between the two and they easily fall for the lies of Mormon missionaries or Jehovah’s Witness cultists when they come to one’s door.

Glenn Beck is a complete total idiot who has no honor, does not support America’s troops and would not know the first thing about restoring honor to the USA. On this idiots radio show and Fox Network program he consistent demonstrates all the unstable behaviors of a dry alcoholic which include grandiosity, judgmentalism, intolerance, impulsivity, ADD and indecisiveness. Alongside that reality, Glenn Beck does not possess a single ounce of journalistic integrity, has no college degree, has no qualifications and he is definitely not a true conservative. But then, what can anyone expect from someone who can’t find anything filthier than their own personal reflection. Since people like Beck cannot survive on the basis of any personal merits, they survive by putting others down with lies and half truths in order to feel good about themselves.

The truth about Beck is that he a dry mormon alcoholic who never got the counseling required for alcoholics. To further complicate things and confuse people, Beck flippantly throws around Christian terms like “God”, “Jesus”,”Holy Spirit” as well as voices of other so called “Spirit Powers” on his radio talk show. Beck is a mormon in active standing with the mormon church and is not a Christian. Mormonism teaches many gods, that the god of the earth was once a man who attained godhood status, there is no trinity, the cross of Christ means nothing and that Jesus Christ and Satan were brothers. They have some very twisted ideas that do not come from the Christian Bible or Christian doctrines and they are laughing all the way to the bank with each temple they build.

Because Beck does not possess a single ounce of journalistic integrity, he is the perfect abortion poster child for Fox Network. The people who love what Beck says are no different than the impressionable sheep who loved every speech made by Adolph Hitler in his early years when he brought Germany into an era of economic prosperity These same sheep also blindly followed Hitler into one of the darkest chapters of world history. Beck and the Fox Network both cater to the same lowest common denominator of demagoguery.

Someone should have asked Beck which of the many mormon gods he kept talking about during his argument with himself on Saturday on the square in DC. Like a typical dry alcoholic, Beck even lied on national television when he spoke about holding a document signed by George Washington. That event never took Place. Unfortunately, people who love being led around by the nose do not realize that Beck is talking about a different god than that of Christianity, Judaism or Islam. Beck has been a product of mormon cultism from the day he started doing a radio talk show as an opinion pusher. This idiot never even went to college, has no clue what is really in the US Constitution or what the founding fathers really believed and intended. You don’t have to have a degree in psychology to see that Beck exhibits all the signs of a dry alcoholic.

The only reason this unstable impressionable idiot fell into mormonism was because the woman he wanted to have sex with would not do so unless they got first got married and joined a church. From that point, they joined the mormon cult where Beck’s unstable mind went even further out into left field through mixing Catholicism with mormonism. Glenn Beck is as big a charlatan as Joseph Smith or that 5th grade graduate (Charles T Russell) who started the Jehovah’s Witness cult.

This is Glenn Beck in a very accurate and concise nutshell. Considering the fact that Becks personal views are extreme Marxist Libertarian, his form of patriotism is false and he is a person who has no real substance or depth. It will not surprise many of us when Beck’s next big thing is to come out of the closet and announce his homosexuality to the nation. Simply put…he is just another predatory neocon who is pushing the buttons of very ignorant & impressionable people who love being told what to think and believe.
We live in a period of history where it has become very socially acceptable to be stupid and follow extremist idiots like Glenn Beck, Adolph Hitler, Sarah Palin, Karl Rove, Dick Cheney, Christine O Donnell and Rush Limbaugh. Chicanery and lies are their middle names as these people have no ounce of integrity and are masters at perverting truth, facts and history. Even now…Beck is probably masturbating while watching Fox News video footage of Christine O Donnell & Sarah Palin while brainstorming over his next round of vile spew for his opinion pushing points on the radio or TV.

I am a conservative and Glen Beck is turning new and young generations against conservative values. These kids are smart and they have all information at their disposal. When Beck gets facts wrong or takes them out of context for obvious selfish reasons, this turns bright people off. Calm it down Beck or you’ll help bring down and already dying republican party’s future.

It goes back to the Venus of Willendorf…clearly, the right has taken its cue from the initial cultural divide between the gaiia and the testosterone Neanderthal disjunct that drives, TO THIS DAY, the likes of Beck, Savage and Hannity. The diminished libido, effectiveness and overcompensation are clearly documented in the fossil record, and the branch of “homo conservatus” that descended (unlike the still un-descended testicular appurtenances, a signal trait of the neocons…) from the earliest “breast envy” of the latter day commentatorship speaks for itself.

Or, more accurately, slurps for itself.

I’m not a big fan of Beck’s style. It’s just a little too goofy for me, but I think the personal nature of his show(s) is really reaching a lot of people. Beck’s no intellectual, and he’s far from academic. His path seems to reflect the mixed up combination of logic, intuition, occasional inspiration and somewhat haphazard personal study that characterizes the evolution of most individuals’ personal opinions. I think that’s how he’s getting so many followers.

All in all, though, I think he’s on the right track. Libs/Progs can target the guy’s shortcomings and motivations, but it’s hard to argue with the truths that he occasionally clarifies for his audience.

In case a google search by the subject leads him to these comments, check out mises.org, Mr Beck. There’s a PhD in economics on that site.

It goes back to the 18th-19th century reform movements and to Hess-Marx-Engels and before that the Village Idiot of Slit Trench, Mass.

Beck may be for real. Maybe he really believes in defending our borders, deporting the illegals, ending the fraudulent work visa programs and pulling out of these ruinous and seemingly endless wars fought at the behest of supranational corporations and the Israel Lobby. I hope so, and I hope his popularity reflects that. Time will tell. In any case I doubt he’ll fall for the patented neocon combination of threats (racist, anti-Semite etc) and inducements (you wanna keep that chair at Fox, bubbi?) unless he really wants to.

“The thing about Beck is that he wants to trace the country’s problem to the progressives of the time of T.R.,What he won’t say (or maybe can’t) is that what he fears goes back to Lincoln and the Radical Republicans of the 1850’s ,60’s and 70’s”

Agreed–TR’s politics stemmed from the positions of those who opposed these radical republicans. His own father was a ‘reform republican’ in 1876 who combated the stalwarts of the Grant administration.

Apparently not that many people on here pay close attention to some of the things that Beck actually states. Some of which are incredibly manipulated, wildly deceptive, and often simply made up. They are also often wildly incendiary and absurdly illogical. But then logic never was much of a leading human condition. Particularly in comparison to the heavy tendency for us to think that we are, or are being, logical, which is something that sometimes profoundly ignorant Beck aptly taps into, while distorting actual reason and fact into a grotesque wreckage of its former self. Sort of an extremist and even more wildly ignorant version of Rush Limbaugh, if that were possible; which, Beck has shown, it is.

The thing about Beck is that he wants to trace the country’s problem to the progressives of the time of T.R.,What he won’t say (or maybe can’t) is that what he fears goes back to Lincoln and the Radical Republicans of the 1850′s ,60′s and 70′s.He seems to miss the fact that the result of the Civil War was that the Constitution was turned upside down.Pre Civil War,the Constitution was used as intended,to limit the power of the federal government,the war blew all those limits away.The country,created by the Union(federal govt.) victory was one were the Constitution is used to coerce the States and citizens to it’s will.Instead of the States being the judge of the federal govenments powers,it became it’s own judge,and has judged that there are no limits.

@ Al: Good essay. It’s the style of the man that puts me off — that manic quality Beck has and the little boy antics — not that he sometimes wishes a plague on both political houses.
——–
That seems to be the dividing line for many. I like his manic style, but I can see how it’s off-putting for others.

@ AnthonyJ: People who have something to hide hate Glenn Beck. People who have lied to the American people hate him. People who are corrupt in government hate him.
——–
So true. Just as Obama should be judged by who his friends are, Beck should be judged by who his enemies are.
